Intergrated Amp with VR4jrs


I'm looking to upgrade and also change to an intergrated amp. Right now I'm using a Classe CP50 pre and an Odyssey Stratos power. Does anyone have experience with using either a Krell KAV 400i or a Musical Fidelity A5 with VR4jrs and how would you describe the sound? Please do not make tube recommendations.
Thanks

I current own two 400xi for my two small rooms. I love the fast and tight sounds of the Krell for instruments and percussions. I love the sweet and soft midrange of the MF. I have gone tubes with Rogue monoblocks and its magnum pre but tubby sounds excitment last for abt only a few months. AR is still a better choice if you go tubes. CJ, Rogue are good products for the price but not quite "tube" sounds as AR. My next intergrated will be AR. Again, some listener loves colour added some doesn't.
